Rotating Antenna for Best Picture
Make sure antenna is in the “UP” position.
Pull down on directional handle using both hands
until it disengages ceiling plate and rotate for best
picture and sound on TV set.
Lowering Antenna to Travel Position
Rotate antenna until pointer on directional
handle aligns with pointer on ceiling plate.
Turn elevating crank (counter-clockwise) in
“DOWN” direction until resistance is noted
(about 13 turns). Antenna is now locked in travel
position. Turn amplifier power switch “OFF”.
TV SIGNAL AMPLIFIER
The TV signal amplifier is built into the
antenna and can be turned on or off with a power
switch located on a switchplate below or inside
the front overhead entertainment center cabinet.
An indicator light will glow when the switch
is on and the signal amplifier is active.
Checking Performance
The TV signals available to an RV are entirely
dependent on its location in relation to the
transmitter. Signals may vary from strong to no
usable signal at all. We recommend that the TV
system be checked out in an area known to have
good TV reception.
To check the antenna amplifier, raise the
antenna, select a TV channel and rotate the
antenna for best picture. Then turn off the
amplifier power switch. If the antenna amplifier
is working properly, the TV picture will now be
degraded (snowy). When you turn the switch
back on, the picture should again be sharp.
